Deep groove ball bearing SKF 6309-2Z/C5, Outer diameter: 100 mm | Width: 25 mm | Inner diameter: 45 mm

Ball bearings are essential mechanical components that reduce friction and support various loads in a wide range of industrial applications. Among them, deep groove ball bearings stand out for their versatility, ability to operate at high speeds, and low maintenance requirements.

This SKF rigid ball bearing is an essential choice for demanding industrial applications. Thanks to its single-row design, reinforced with metal shields, it offers optimal protection against contaminants while minimizing friction. With its C5 radial clearance, it is perfectly suited for high speeds and high loads.

Features:
It is equipped with two metal shields that effectively protect the internal components from medium-sized solid particles, ensuring proper sealing while generating minimal friction losses. The very wide C5 radial clearance minimizes direct contact between the balls and raceways, which reduces internal friction, especially in cases of significant shaft deflection. Lubricated for life with high-quality grease, it is suitable for high-speed, low-maintenance applications. Its ability to withstand high radial loads and moderate axial loads makes it a valuable asset for many industrial applications.

Maintenance:
Lubricated for life, this SKF single-row deep groove ball bearing eliminates the need for relubrication. To ensure optimal performance, it is recommended to conduct periodic inspections to check the temperature, detect any unusual noises, and monitor the bearing’s overall condition. The outer surfaces should be cleaned to prevent dust buildup. If signs of wear or failure are detected, immediate replacement is advised to preserve the integrity of the equipment.

Sealing:
This bearing is partially sealed by two steel sheet metal flanges, providing protection against medium-sized solid contaminants. The narrow gap between the flanges and the internal components forms a mechanical barrier that prevents the intrusion of large debris while generating minimal friction. Although this configuration reduces dust intrusion, it remains vulnerable to moisture, which can expose the bearing to corrosion in humid environments.
